DescriptionA flight simulator where a group of planes fly at you in each level. Players must destroy the oncoming planes to advance.Know anything more about this game? Cabinet InformationTwo cabinet types were created for this game: upright and a closed horizontally and vertically rotating cockpit. On the cockpit, only the seat rotated horizontally while the whole cockpit rotated vertically. Both cabinets contain a grey monitor frame with flashing lights at the top that indicate an enemy's "lock" on your craft. The two speakers inside the cockpit at head-level produce excellent stereo sound which really adds to the gameplay.Cheats, Tricks and BugsThe game will play itself if it has the credits to continue.Scarcity in collections (VAPS.org)Common - There are 38 known instances of this game owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, 36 of them are original dedicated machines, 0 of them are conversions in which game circuit boards have been placed in another game cabinet, and 2 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.Of the 42,694 video games (3,154 unique) tracked by the Video Game Preservation Society, this game ranks a 21 on a scale out of 100 (100 = most commonly seen, 1=least common) in popularity based on ownership records. Wanted - There are 7 VAPS members currently looking for this game. Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operatos might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range. FixesA common problem with this game seems to result in the "danger" or "lock on" lamps remaining lit all the time.
